Abstract

The invention relates to the technical field of ultraviolet detectors, in particular to an epitaxial structure of a semiconductor ultraviolet detector chip, a preparation method of the epitaxial structure and the semiconductor ultraviolet detector chip. According to the invention, through the arrangement of alternately grown superlattice layers, the dislocation line of a semiconductor buffer layer is effectively blocked, so that the dislocation density of the whole buffer layer is greatly reduced, and the problem that the dark current of a device is large due to the fact that the dislocation density is too large is solved; a strained superlattice layer is introduced between a P-type transmission layer and a P-type contact layer, and the introduction of the strained superlattice layer enables the structure to generate strain, enables an energy band to be bent, obviously improves the electron hole tunneling migration effect, improves the quantum efficiency, and improves the ultraviolet responsivity; and the introduction of the strain superlattice layer can effectively prevent the extension of dislocation lines of the bottom layer material, so that the dark current of the device can be greatly reduced, and the performance of the ultraviolet solar blind detector is improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of ultraviolet detectors, in particular to an epitaxial structure of a semiconductor ultraviolet detector chip, a preparation method thereof, and a semiconductor ultraviolet detector chip. Background technique [0002] Semiconductor detection devices are widely used in many fields due to their excellent characteristics, especially ultraviolet semiconductor detectors have attracted much attention due to their military and civilian applications. Because the atmosphere has the effect of scattering and absorbing ultraviolet rays, the amount of ultraviolet rays on the surface of the earth is relatively small, and the wavelengths less than 280nm are almost completely absorbed by the atmosphere, which is called the sun-blind band. The solar-blind ultraviolet detector can track and detect the tail flame of the missile, and this detection is not interfered by the ultraviolet rays generated by the sun. It has strong a...
